Democratic strategist James Carville is publicly attacking fellow Democrat and DNC Vice Chair David Hogg amid reports that Hogg is working to challenge sitting Democratic lawmakers with more left-leaning candidates.
As The Gateway Pundit reported, the internal conflict has drawn national attention and was highlighted by Fox News host Jesse Watters, who offered his own blunt assessment of the situation during a segment on The Five.
According to recent reporting, Hogg, who rose to national prominence following the 2018 Parkland shooting, is using Democratic National Committee resources to back progressive challengers to sitting members of Congress.
The effort appears aimed at pushing the party further to the left and strengthening resistance to President Donald Trump’s administration.
Gold. Upgraded. Buy real gold from $1. Store it in America. Sell it with one click.
Carville responded on NewsNation, calling Hogg a “contemptible little twerp” and suggesting that legal action could be taken against him for what he believes is a misuse of party assets.
Carville has been increasingly vocal in recent months about the party’s internal fractures and what he sees as the dangers of left-wing overreach.
On The Five, Jesse Watters reacted to the feud with sarcasm and indifference, comparing it to a fight with no real stakes.

“Watching these two fight is like watching women’s boxing,” Watters said. “They’re both 130 pounds. The fighting’s bad, and I don’t care who wins.”
Watters also addressed comments made by Rep. James Clyburn (D-SC), who recently appeared on MSNBC and blamed the media for the Democratic Party’s inability to communicate its so-called “winning message.”
Clyburn argued that the mainstream media isn’t giving Democrats the platform they need to connect with voters.

Watters didn’t hold back in his response:
“Clyburn, he himself is a problem. He’s the one that gave us Joe Biden. He blackmailed Biden to have a DEI VP. He was part of that coup and then pushed Kamala instead of an open primary, and then they got wiped out. And he’s blaming the media?”
Watters continued with an analogy, comparing the Democratic Party to a chef who insists on serving bad food while blaming critics rather than fixing the recipe. “It has nothing to do with the food critics. You cook disgusting dishes.”

He added that Democrats should stop relying on influencers, celebrity appearances, and “flashy music,” and instead focus on delivering results that Americans actually want. “There’s a saying—it’s called ‘all sizzle, no steak.’ Read about it,” Watters said.
The ongoing feud between establishment Democrats and the party’s activist wing appears to be escalating as the 2024 election cycle continues to unfold.

Even given the low IQ of democrats at large, how they allowed pig boy to become vice chair is beyond even their stupidity.
I don’t mind though. He is a great asset for Republicans.
Not boxing, more of a slap fight
